A scare for Marciello at Imola. Maisano wins Race 2

Maranello, 4 July -- Another exciting day for the young drivers of the
Ferrari Driver Academy, in action this weekend in Budapest and Imola.

At the Hungaroring circuit, Daniel Zampieri took fourth place in Race 2, at
the sixth round of the World Series 3.5 Championship. The young prospect
from the Ferrari Driver Academy was one of the front runners on the twisty
Hungarian track, where victory went to Sten Pentus (Fortec Motorsport) who
took the flag ahead of Albert Costa (Epsilon Euskada) and Mikhail Aleshin
(Carlin.)

The Dino e Enzo Ferrari circuit at Imola was hosting the third round of this
season's Formula Aci-Csai Abarth series, with two races. The final result of
Race 1 was very much affected by the corrected grid established after the
stewards had handed out penalties at the end of Friday's qualifying, not to
mention a spectacular accident which involved Raffaele Marciello in the
opening three laps. The JD Motorsport runner, had been squeezed by Maxim
Zimin (Zenzer Motorsport) at Rivazza, clipped the Russian's car and flew
into the air, before rolling several times, as everyone in the paddock held
their breath. Fortunately, the Ferrari Driver Academy student emerged unhurt
from the crash, although his car was badly damaged, which meant he could not
take part in Race 2. The first race was won by Riccardo Agostini (Prema
Junior) who crossed the line ahead of the other Ferrari Driver Academy
entrant, Brandon Maisano (BVM/Target) followed by Roman De Beer (Scuderia
Victoria.) Maisano went on to triumph in Race 2, securing an important win,
beating Riccardo Agostini (Prema Junior) and Kevin Gilardoni (Cram
Competition.)

The World Series will be back in action at Germany's historic Hockenheim
circuit, over the weekend of 5 September, while the Formula Abarth
competitors take to the track at Varano on 28 and 29 August.
